Dear Sir:—In the Wainwright Star
of February 8th there appeared a let-
ter, over the signature of D, W. Davi-
son. This letter might have been
overlooked as merely the ranting of a
disgruntled individual, getting some-
thing off his chest, were it not for the
fact that it makes definite and false
accusations against the staff of our
local hospital. Mr. Davison accuses
these girls of “laziness, wanton cruel-
ty, inefficiency, mismanagement,
egotism and stubbornness”.

The writer of that letter is a Do-

As an attending physician in this
hospital since its opening in 1928, I

what is going on there. I most em-
phatically deny the truth of these ac-
cusations, During the past year I}
have had fewer complaints and more |
expressions of appreciation from my
patients, relative to their treatment
in hospital, than in any other year
since the institution was opened.

On Miss Brown’s shoulders, as
matron, résts the full responsibility of
the hospital, and this is, without
doubt, the greatest responsibility car-
ried by any individual in our com-
munity. She is conscientious in her
work and sincere in her efforts to as-
sure the best possible care to her pa-
tients. I have elways found her will-
ing to co-operate and anxious for any
suggestions which would improve the
hospital. I feel that she has the con-
fidence and co-operation of her staff,
the board and the visiting doctors.

My only object,in writing this let-
ter is-to try, in some small way, to
right a wrong which I feél has been
done, not only to these girls person-
ally, but also to the good name of our
hospital.

H. C. WALLACE, M.D.
Wainwright, Feb. 11th.

The Editor.

Dear Sir:—We note with regret, in
a recent issue of “The Star” a letter
from Mr. D. W. Davison, in which he
levels various charges at the board
and staff of the Wainwright munici-
pal hospital.

Among these charges are ineffici-

'ency, laziness and wanton cruelty, as

well as egotism, mismanagement and
stubbornness.

As Mr. Davison has not been a pa-
tient, in this hospital during the last
year or so, we are at a loss to under-

such strong statements, which are not
true.

We are taking this opportunity to
deny these charges in case the public
|might think there are some grounds

.|for the charges if we failed to do so

in reply to Mr.-Davison’s letter, es-
pecially as since the publication of his
jletter, many people have assured us
that they had received the very best
of attention while in the hospital and
were prepared to deny. Mr. Davison’s
statements. Furthermore, the Board
has received no complaints from par
tients under the present staff.

We would be much obliged if you
will publish this letter in your next
issue.

WAINWRIGHT HOSPITAL BOARD
J. Fuller, Chairman.

The Editor.

Dear Sir:—Having read a letter in
your paper under date February 8th,
over the signature of one D. W. Dav-
ison, in which he attacks in a very un-
just and most certainly ungentleman-
ly manner, the qualifications of ma-
tron and nurses of our local hospital,
may I, through the medium of your
paper, give you a statement very dif-
My experi-
ence is based on actual facts, while
to my way of thinking Mr. Davison’s
is on what the other fellow told him.

During the past 18 months I have
had different ones in my family in this
hospital, and during the past two
weeks have been a constant visitor at
the hospital, my daughter being a pa-
tient and is still in there, having un-
dergone a very serious operation, per-
haps more serious that Mr. Davison’s.
This girl lay on the verge of the Great

tention of Dr. H. C. Wallace and the|

stir up strife because we think we
have an individual grievance, which it
seems to me Mr, Davison and friends
think they have.

As I presume you must be a highly

splendid letter, come out and show
your géntlemanly qualities by telling

have made an absurd mistake.

that your health will be restored and
you do not suffer any further set-
backs, for health’is a fine flower.

Bread is one of the least expensive
things we eat and nearly one hun-

not equally valuable but wheat pro-_

best of vegetable origin. Supple-
mented with milk, bread can sup-
ply all the body requirements in this
respect, hence the importance of
using plenty of milk in and with
bread. Bread is the most palatable
of all foods because it is the only

betraying a friend? Well, T haven't
any friend. I got in here by chance,
looking for a place to hide until I
could make a getaway.”

“You've already betrayed yourself,”
Elizabeth said quietly.

Michael groaned and covered his
face with his hands.

“Pm no good at this sort of thing,”
he said miserably. ‘Well, what are
you going to do about it?”

Elizabeth was silent. It must have
been Mary's room Michael had looked
for, but she was surprised that Mary
had had enough courage to stage the
‘attempt at escape. ‘ :

“Well,” Michael said, “are you go-
ing to turn me out and let me take a
chance on getting away, or are you
going to call the others?”

“Neither,” Elizabeth answered, com-
ing to a quick decision. “They are
making a very thorough search for
you. I think you had better stay here
for a couple of hours, until the ex-
citement dies down.”

He stared at her. ‘Why should you
do this for me? . Haven’t they told
you I’m a madman?”

“Yes, but I don’t believe it. Besides
there appears to be some connection
between you and me.” —

“What?” asked Michael, astonished.

“If you'll tell me your story, I'll tell
‘you mine,” Elizabeth bargained.

“Why not?” he shrugged. ‘There
isn’t much to tell. Several months
ago, I was laid up in Beirut with ty-
phoid, and it left me pretty shaky.
Professor Meres suggested I come out
here to convalesce, and I agreed. It
seemed a good idea at the time, but
they’ve kept me here ever since, try-
ing to make me believe that I’m fun-
ny in the head. I will be soon,” he
ended, “if they don’t let up on me.”

Elizabeth frowned. “You say it
was the professor who suggested that
you come here?”

“Yes—the devil!”

“How did you meet him?”

“Oh, he was an old friend of Fath-
er’s—I’ve known him for some time—
and he came to see me when he heard
I was ill.” 1#

“But surely, your father or friends
must know you are here?” :

“My father and sister were killed in
an auto accident in Beirut about a
year ago,” Michael answered quietly
“They were all the family I had. As
for my friends: they are so accustom-
ed to my disappearing for a year or
so at a time, to go traveling here and
there, that they don’t think anything
of it.” .

“You say Professor Meres was an
old friends of your father’s?”

“Yes—both Meres and Dr. Morris
went, to college with Father. My
father and sister and I had often been
out here to the sanatorium before, on
visits, but everything was different
then.”

“And you have no idea why Dr.
Morris and Professor Meres should
want to keep you here now—and
make you out to be insane?”

Michael hesitated a moment and,
when he answered, Elizabeth had the
feeling that he was not telling the
truth.

“No,” he said, ‘none at all.”
shuddered slightly.

Elizabeth felt sure he was keeping
something back and was exasperated
by his reticence. ;

“You shouldn’t let them frighten
you so!” she said sharply.

They must contain foods that children
are familiar with—and that they like.
A-main course dish; a few cookies;
sandwiches and mints; a glass of fruit
juice or milk, and a light dessert will
fill the bill. Here are two recipes
that should be valuable. The des-
sert requires no eggs, no baking and
no boiling; is light; is delicious and
is healthful. Try these recipes at your
children’s party. ;
Meat and Potato Croquettes
1 slice onion
1 tablespoon butter or butter
substitute
tablespoon flour
cup milk
Salt and pepper
1 cup cocked, chopped meat
1 cup mashed potatoes
Egg and crumbs
Cold rice or hominy may be substi-
tuted for potato in making these cro-
quettes, and fish may be used instead
of meat. Mince the onion and put
into the pan with butter or butter
substitute. When yellowed, add the
flour, stir until smooth, then add
milk, salt and pepper and boil, stir-
ring all the time. Stir in the finely
chopped meat and add cold or hot
tmashed potato. Spread on a plate
and when cool enough, form it into
little rolls or balls, dip in flour, then
into beaten egg, roll in crumbs, and
fry in hot fat until they are a deli-
cate brown.
Vanilla Rennet-Custard
1 package vanilla renent powder
1 pint milk
% cup whipping cream
% cup sugar
Make rennet-custard according to
direction on package. Then chill in

whip the cream, adding sugar and
mixing well. Squeeze through a pas-
try tube and decorate top of each ren-
net-custard. Garnish with _ sliced
maraschino cherries, bananas, marsh-
{mallows or colorful candies.
Salmon Souffle
3 tablespoon butter
1 1lb. can Canadian salmon
1 cup milk
4 tablespoon flour
3 eggs
Salt and pepper
Melt the butter, add the flour, blend
well and add the milk, stirring con-
stantly. Season. Set aside to cool
while you separate the eggs and beat
the yolks and white separately. Add
the yolks to the sauce, and the sal-
mon which has been flaked and all

TO AVOID SKIN BLEMISHES

Skin blemishes are a tragedy to
women. In addition to spoiling our;
beauty, they create a feeling of infer-
iority. Yet, in most cases, they can
be avoided, or at least quickly eradi-
cated.

Cleanliness is the basic remedy—
both internal and external. Internal
cleanliness is essential to a clear skin.
A disorganized system quickly makes
its mark on the skin, so don’t neglect
the simple precaution of taking a!
dash of fruit salt in a glass of water |
every morning on arising.

External cleanliness calls for fre-
quent washing. Cream cleasing, while
essential, is not a substitute for soap
and water washing, which should be |
carried out frequently, too.

Washing tends to remove some of
the oils that are inherent in the skin,
so I advise the use of a palmolive |
soap, because it contains lubricant |
oils and thus actually helps the skin.

Readers constantly write for ad-|
vice about removing blackheads, so T|
am repeating the treatment. First |
wash the affected parts thoroughly |
with palmolive soap and water, then
cover the area with a towel wrung!
out in hot water, or steam the face!
over a basin of hot water to open
the pores.

Soften your finger-tips with little!
pads of cotton-wool and_ gently,
squeeze out the blackheads. Change
the wool pads often, because they be-};
come infected.. Sterilize the parts:
with a lotion of peroxide and hot wae

The Legion
Notice Board

Our comrades who suffer from the ef-
fects of a,pensionable disability are
reasonably well provided ‘for and
those who are eligible for War Vet-
erans’ Allowance have some small
measure of relief, but there still
remains thuse who are unemployed
and unable to qualify for either of
the above sources of assistance.

It has always been the contention of
our organization that all men who
served in a theatre of war are the
responsibility of the Dominion Gov-
ernment, and in this regard we
quote from a letter just received
from our Dominion Secretary: .

“Arrangements were made on behalf
of Colonel Foster and other officers
and members of the Dominion
Council for an interview with the
Rt. Hon. W. L. Matkenzie King,
Prime Minister of Canada. The
Prime Minister was accompanied
by Major the Hon. C. G. Power,
Minister of Pensions and National
Healtn; Captain the Hon. Ian Mac-
kenzie, Minister of National De-
fence, and the Hon. Norman Rogers
Minister of Labor.

“The case for the Legion was pre-
sented by Col. Foster in a most
concise and effective manner, and
he received arf attentive hearing.
In his reply, the Prime Minister
spoke with appreciation of the Le-
gion's offer of service at the time
of the international crisis in Sep-
tember last, complimented Col.
Foster very highly on his presenta-
tion, and indicated that the pro-
posal now advanced would receive
the most sympathetic consideration
on behalf of himself and his col-
leagues in the cabinet.”

We all await the government’s deci-
sion in this matter with great in-
terest.

and duty.—F. W. Robertson.
